Part of Darlington Works scrapyard showing the stores in May 1962. These stores, based on the grounded body shells of two former Sentinel locomotives, would have held cutting gear and various tools and equipment necessary to carry out the day to day work of the yard. The two Sentinels already subjected to the cutters torch in this unusually creative way are nos 68149, formerly of 51F, West Auckland and 68180, late of 50C, Selby. The building in the background is Darlington North Road station (see image 18572).
